[TMIC] Vision

[bwimberly]

Good morning folks,   Grace, I so hope your vision does improve after finishing the IV Solumedrol.  Not to discourage you but my eyesight did just the opposite.  Let me say I really have no idea what caused it but I can't help but wonder if the steroids or other medication caused mine to deteriorate.   I have worn glasses most of my life and have always tried to have an eye exam ever couple of years if there were no problems.  Because of the TM I had not has one for 3 years and I'm sure the only reason I thought to go now was my eyesight had gotten so bad I could hardly see to drive.  I could not see TV very well from across the room.  When I had the exam a month ago, my eyesight was 20/80.  The legal limit to drive in GA is 20/80.  Boy, what a difference new glasses has made.   I did not write this to discourage you, I wrote it to encourage you to have your eyes checked on a regular basis.  Maybe if I had gotten mine checked sooner they would not be this bad.   Also hello to everyone.  I still don't post alot because all of you have much more wisdom that I do about TM.  But I read the posts everyday and more important than that, my wife reads them everyday.  I think reading them has helped her to understand TM more and therefore she understand what is happening with me when I tell her some new symptom has popped up.  Thanks to all of you.   Bill in South GA
